Activity Description

Once a month and only in March until October, when the weather is good, we can paddle out to sea from Simon’s Town harbour and watch the splendour of full moon rising over the bay from behind the Hottentots Holland mountains. This is the one day that the the full moon rises and sun sets at roughly the time.

A truly unique experience.

it was amazing! Kayaking is always great but with the sunset, the penguins, the full moon and as a great surprise, the bioluminescent algi in the end, it was just perfect -Julie
